Education in Italy witnessed great many upheavals, challenges and changes. But, from 1962 onwards, the educational system of Italy was standardized making all children up to 14 years of age, to follow a single program that includes primary education called in Italian as scuola elementare and the middle school referred to as scuola media.
Education in Italy primarily aims at fulfilling two objectives. One, make primary education accessible to all children, and narrow-down the gender bias such that equal opportunity for education is provided to males and females alike.
In 1999, changes were seen in Italian university system that saw the replacement of vecchio ordinamento or the old system of 5 years long degree, with nuovo ordinamento, or the new system. The new system includes a 3-year Bachelor degree, which is followed by a 2 year Master's degree.
Unique to Italian education is the "credit system" which aims to quantify the amount of work needed by each course and exam. So, a total of 25 work hours are worth one credit. There is also the provision for lateral movement within the courses offered and pursued, with special provision also for continuing the studies in a foreign country after the 3 years of Bachelor degree.
Today, there are two stages of education in Italy: primary and secondary. Primary school in Italy lasts 5 years, but as a rule it should be preceded by 3 years of non-compulsory nursery school [kindergarten]. The curriculum is uniform for primary education, irrespective of being private or state-funded school.
Secondary education in Italy is followed by university education. The universities offer Laurea which is for 3 years, and roughly equivalent to a bachelor's degree and the Laurea Specialistica which is 2 years, roughly equivalent to a Master's degree.
The universities in Italy are dominantly public universities, and usually named after the city or region in which they are located Viz. University of Florence. There are also a few private-funded universities, which are accredited to the state authorities, with autonomy to confer academic degrees.
An established grading system on a scale from 1 to 30 is adhered with. The pass mark or the minimum scale fixed is 18. So at the end of Laurea and Laures Specialistica there is a final exam, which requires the students to submit a thesis or dissertation, which is based on an original experimental work or on a review of academic literature. The final grade is decided by following a weighted mean of the grades of the single courses, converted to a scale running from 1 to 110. As the minimum grade for every individual examination is 18, the minimum overall grade will be 66.

Magnetic Forces
In this worksheet, students will test their knowledge of magnetic forces.
Curriculum topic: Forces and Magnets
Curriculum subtopic: Magnets Attract or Repel
Magnets are very useful and have many different functions.
The Earth is a giant magnet, with North and South poles. This picture shows the magnetic fields around the Earth:
In this worksheet you will have fun answering questions about magnetic forces.
Is this statement true or false?
When magnets attract, there are magnetic forces.
A magnet has only a north OR a south pole.
Magnets are used in loudspeakers to make sounds.
Complete this sentence by writing the missing word below.
The north pole of a magnet will attract the _________ pole of another magnet.
Explorers use an instrument called a __________ to help them with direction.
Substances that are attracted by magnets are known as _______________ substances.
Complete this sentence.
A freely suspended bar magnet will...
come to rest in a north-south direction
keep rotating clockwise
sway from side to side
stay in position with no movement
The pull of a magnet is strongest at...
the south pole
both of the poles
the middle of the magnet
Magnets can attract all metallic substances.
Which statement about magnets is true?
magnets are always bar shaped
all magnets are equally strong
like poles repel
only magnets are attracted to other magnets
There are both attractive and repulsive forces between magnets.
All magnets have one north pole and one south pole.
Magnets are placed near an electromagnet that has electricity passing through it. The electromagnetism varies with the amount of electricity so the amount of attraction between the permanent magnet and the electromagnet varies. This movement pulls a paper cone in and out that makes the air vibrate. Air vibration is the sound we hear.
Poles that are the same repel, poles that are different, attract. In this case a North pole will attract a south pole of another magnet.
Compasses are well known to find the north, and therefore other directions also. Naturally occurring magnets could also be used in days before compasses were made. These naturally occurring magnets were called lodestones.
The most commonly known magnetic substance is iron. The many different sorts of steel are only magnetic because they contain iron. Steel is not magnetic of itself. Two other metals are magnetic, cobalt and nickel. Some of the best magnets are made of Cobalt mixed with other metals.
The Earth has a north pole and a south pole. The suspended magnet will come to lie with its north pole pointing to the Earth's south pole, and vice versa.
The strongest points of the magnet are at each end: the poles.
No, only pure iron, cobalt and Nickel are magnetic, or alloys (mixtures) that contain these metals. Note that there is something called paramagnetism, but that is beyond this course.
The test of magnetism is that poles that are alike repel. Both magnets and magnetic materials that are not magnets attract, so you cannot distinguish between them by attraction.
Magnetic or Non-magnetic?

Q: Sonar WebService API - resources endpoint returns no metrics I'm using Sonar 4.5 and I'm trying, by accessing the API, to get all the violations for a project... for this I'm trying to use the resources endpoint with my project's key. The response contains the basic info but not all the other metrics (violations, coverage etc...). This is what I'm getting:
    {
        "id": 582,
        "key": "myGroupId:myProject",
        "name": "madfox",
        "scope": "PRJ",
        "qualifier": "TRK",
        "date": "2014-10-23T15:10:11+0100",
        "creationDate": "2014-10-06T09:58:21+0100",
        "lname": "myProject",
        "version": "1.0-SNAPSHOT",
        "description": ""
    }

And I was trying to use another endpoint that might help but nothing useful so far. Is there anything I can do for the endpoint to return more info? Can the violations be gathered in a different way?
UPDATE:
I've tried all the resources endpoint variations:
api/resources/index
api/resources
api/resources?resource=myGroupId:myProject
api/resources?resource=myGroupId%3AmyProject

They return the project's info, or all the projects when the resource param is not specified, but none of them contains the metrics
I'm also using the sonar-ws-client and that returns the same thing when I use the ResourceQuery class for the find method.
UPDATE2: Steps to reproduce:
Use a rest client, like Postman or just the browser since they are GET endpoints with following urls:
http://nemo.sonarqube.org/api/resources
http://nemo.sonarqube.org/api/resources?resource=org.apache.activemq:activemq-parent

A: You will want to add the metrics that you want to appear in your response, e.g &metrics=violations,tests: http://nemo.sonarqube.org/api/resources?resource=org.apache.activemq:activemq-parent&metrics=violations,test

At the end of a long, emotional day in an Edmonton courtroom, Roberto Robles slowly rose to his feet in the prisoner's box on Wednesday.
The tears streamed down the 75-year-old's face as his lawyer read aloud the letter of apology he had written.
In June 2016, Robles attacked his 38-year-old son-in-law, Armando Cosmea Aspillaga with a pellet gun and a knife, just as the younger man returned home from work after putting in a 10-hour day.
At the time, Aspillaga and his wife, Flavia Robles, were going through a bitter divorce and custody dispute. Roberto Robles made no secret of the disdain he felt towards his son-in-law.
In June, a jury found Robles guilty of second-degree murder. The conviction carries an automatic life sentence with no chance of parole for between 10 to 25 years.
Crown Aaron Pegg told Court of Queen's Bench Justice Dawn Pentelechuk the prosecution team believes Robles should not be eligible to apply for parole until he serves more than ten years, but less than 15 years.
Pegg said the main factors in Robles' favour were his advanced age and a complete lack of criminal record. He also noted the 75-year-old had expressed some remorse for the crime.
But the Crown had harsh words for the crime itself.
At the time of the murder, Aspillaga was fighting for 50 per cent custody of his young daughter, and 50 per cent of the family's assets.
He refused to move out of the family home.
The other Crown who prosecuted the case, Mark Huyser-Wierenga, was blunt in his assessment.
Even Robles' defence lawyer agreed there was no love lost between the two men, although Danyluik rejected the Crown's vigilante theory.
The prosecution pointed out that in hindsight, Robles achieved "almost all of his stated goals" by killing Aspillaga.
The defence submitted 14 letters supporting Robles, including one from his daughter Flavia, who was present every day of the trial as she listened to details about how her father killed her estranged husband.
The supporters described Roberto Robles as a loving husband, father and grandfather.
The judge agreed, calling it "completely incongruous" that Robles had committed the murder.
Danyluik recommended imposing the minimum period of parole ineligibility: 10 years. He said Robles suffers from a number of medical conditions, including a stroke five years ago, mobility issues and the onset of dementia.
The lawyer suggested it's possible Robles may not even live long enough behind bars to apply for parole.
The judge heard 15 victim impact statements from Aspillaga's friends and family.
"There is no life anymore. Only suffering," she added.
There is ongoing bitterness between the two families.
But at the end of the sentencing hearing, both the killer and Aspillaga's mother were openly sobbing in the courtroom.
Robles will be sentenced Aug. 10.

Today I have two Maybelline Brocade polishes to show you, Gilded Rose and Amethyst Couture. There are 10 polishes in this collection, but naturally I gravitated towards the pinks and purples.
Gilded Rose is a gold based, pink and glitter polish. This is three coats and topcoat.
Gilded Rose is much nicer than Amethyst Couture. This polish is thick, and not only because of the glitters but because it's just thick. It was fairly easy to work with but needed a decent amount of dry time. The finish is very shiny though, it is really pretty after all. Worth the hassle of application.
Next up is Amethyst Couture. This is not worth the hassle of application. Take a look first, then we will talk about it.
I am not enthusiastic about this polish at all. This is two thick coats because it is impossible to get a thin coat. It is near black in some light, sorta kinda purple in others, and the gold that looks so apparent in the bottle is barely visible in real life. It actually shows up more in the photos than in read life, too. Total miss for me.
You can find Maybelline polishes in drug stores, WalMarts, etc, but I'm not sure I would recommend running to find these. Has anyone else tried them? Are any other colors better??

Shedding excess weight put on during pregnancy may seem like an impossible undertaking but it is in fact quite a simple process. While some women continue to have weight problems and trouble losing weight, particularly while breast feeding, this simply does not have to be the case. We will discuss a simple, easy to implement program guaranteed to have you back in shape, literally and figuratively, in a matter of a few short weeks. Remember one thing, dieting alone is for the birds! And that's only because birds, as you may have already heard, may eat several times their weight in food every day. Not a bad deal if you can get it. Unfortunately, we humans are built a bit differently.
The first step is probably the easiest and takes the least amount of effort. As a new mother, you may feel like there simply aren't enough hours in the day and, what little time you do have, falls during the baby's nap-time which, as you may already know, is totally unpredictable. As a result, you may already feel completely overwhelmed as you attempt to get everything you need to get accomplished completed and still have a moment's rest while the baby is asleep. The great thing about step one of our post-pregnancy weight loss plan is that it doesn't matter whether the baby is wake or not. In fact, it is usually better if the little bundle of joy is awake.
Step one? Take the baby for a walk in the stroller twice a day.
I often see new moms on a sort of "Bataan Force March," and this is the last thing you should be doing. All that is necessary is a nice leisurely stroll that both baby and mom can enjoy. Take time to take in the scenery. And yes, there is scenery even in a total urban jungle like Manhattan! The walk should be at a decent pace but the actual rate isn't as important as to just do it…as the commercials put it. Make sure that the walks are 20-30 minutes in duration, twice a day, and taken at the same time every day. Getting into a routine will help new mom and baby alike, with many hidden benefits.
One benefit will be immediately apparent!
After walks, the little one may sleep longer and much deeper, allowing for more time of your own. You will discover you have more energy and begin to look forward to your daily strolls. Don't think you have time? Just stop and think about how much time you spend with a fussy baby, keeping them occupied, happy, and trying to get the little one to nap. Now imagine all of those bundles of time evaporating because you are spending time together, out in the fresh air, and losing weight all at the same time. Weight loss step number one: 2 walks per day, 20-30 minutes per walk. Try to space them out at least 8 hours apart. Some of the benefits will include an increased metabolism, decreased stress levels, and quick and easy weight loss. Not to mention the fact that you will have a happier, healthier baby!
Many new moms breast feed and, even if they don't, they snack more frequently as they are used to a pattern of eating during pregnancy that is counterproductive and counterintuitive for weight loss. New moms who are breast feeding often believe that it is necessary to eat more in order to feed the baby, to build up and have available and adequate supply of breast milk. This is simply not the case! Breast milk quantity and quality has nothing to do with quantity the new mom's food intake but rather the quality.
So, step two is basically in two parts.
One of two: You need to write down everything you put in you mouth. That's it! Just write is down. Everything! With journaling comes an awareness of what and how much you are eating. And no, you do not have to count calories! The benefit is profound and immediate. Once you begin to take stock of what you are eating and how often, you will find that the awareness drives an adjustment, not only in quantity of food but quality as well. Why? Because now you are accountable to yourself and to your child. if you are eating better, you will feel better, and ultimately look better.
Two of two: You need to remove the junk food from the home. That's right! Just don't bring it in, any of it. The immediate benefit is obvious, you will take in fewer empty calories. The long term benefit is a shift in focus and eating habits that carry over to your child, as well. If you are used to eating healthy snacks, such as grapes, apples, oranges, and melons, to name a few, your child will thrive on those foods, never missing what isn't in the house. Finally, the shift in eating habits, combined with the quality of the food you are now taking in, will enhance breast milk quantity and quality, while hastening your post-pregnancy weight loss.
Step two, parts one and two in concert, has nothing to do with how much food you put in your mouth. The step simply makes you accountable, to yourself, for everything that goes in to your system. And thus, changes the quality of those food items taken in through better awareness and accountability. We have not discussed diet, because diets, on their own, never work. That's right, they never work. In fact, if you diet, without changing the underlying behavior? You may as well continue to shovel it in! The only way to lose those pounds, gained during pregnancy, is by changing or reestablishing, good eating habits and kicking the metabolism back up to pre-pregnancy levels.
Step three involves partnering with another new mom. Pregnancy is an amazing time for everyone connected to the new mom to-be; and, it is also an amazing period of discovery for the new mom, as well. During pregnancy, or immediately afterwards, link up with a support network in your area. There are hundreds online, all you need to do is type in "new mom support" or "new mothers support," and the area you live in. I just typed in the former and got 36,100, 100 results! You will find an amazing number of resources in your area. If you have trouble meeting people or cannot find a group in your immediate area, go online and join a forum for new mothers. The reasons? Support and accountability! You will be amazed at how good you feel when you can share anecdotes about your baby, your life, your day, your problems, and your successes, to include your post-pregnancy weight loss progress.
Ultimately, post-pregnancy weight loss is not about diet, it's about lifestyle. If you notice, there is not one diet tip in this entire article, other than to propose a shift in the kinds of food, the quality of food, and not the quantity. Why? Because diets will ultimately make one thing a reality…weight gain! So, if you are interested in losing weight: walk with your baby twice a day for 20-30 minutes; journal, keeping an account of everything that goes into your mouth; get the junk food out of the house, now, today, at once; and, partner with another mom or groups of moms, as soon as possible in the pregnancy. On the last point, step three, try to partner up with one other new mom. Yes, you can still join a group, and you should. But there is something about being accountable to one other human being that makes this strategy work. We may get into group dynamics and weight loss in a later article but for now, know that two is better than three, and three is better than a group. By integrating the three steps above, you will see results in days. In weeks? You will be a totally new you by applying the three simple steps of this post-pregnancy weight loss plan.
After 9 months of putting on the pounds, losing pregnancy weight might seem an impossible task, but it's easier than you think to get back into shape. It might seem hard to think about how you're going to fit in a new losing weight regime with the busy life of a new mother, but if you've been putting off the post-pregnancy pound shedding then read these tips for how to easily fit losing weight into your life.

MLB slugger, Hall of Famer Hank Aaron dies at 86

Baseball legend "Hammerin'" Hank Aaron has passed away at the age of 86, the Atlanta Braves confirmed on Friday. No further details about his cause of death were shared.
Aaron began his career in baseball in 1951 with the Indianapolis Clowns of the negro leagues. Just seven months after starting with them, he signed with the Boston Braves.
pic.twitter.com/4hOMsSGnRi
— Atlanta Braves (@Braves) January 22, 2021
He stayed with the team for 21 years when they moved to Milwaukee and then Atlanta. He debuted in a major league game in 1954 in Milwaukee, after left fielder Bobby Thomson broke an ankle.
In 1974, Aaron hit home run number 715 in a game against the Dodgers, beating Babe Ruth's record. By the end of his baseball career, he would hit 755 home runs.
He came back to Milwaukee in 1975 to finish his career with the Brewers.
Aaron became the first player in the MLB to record 500 home runs and 3,000 hits.
Earlier this month, Aaron joined several civil rights leaders who received the COVID-19 vaccine at the Morehouse School of Medicine.
"Hank Aaron is near the top of everyone's list of all-time great players. His monumental achievements as a player were surpassed only by his dignity and integrity as a person. Hank symbolized the very best of our game, and his all-around excellence provided Americans and fans across the world with an example to which to aspire. His career demonstrates that a person who goes to work with humility every day can hammer his way into history -- and find a way to shine like no other," MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement.
Aaron was also a noted civil rights activist, and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2002 by George W. Bush.
"We have moved in the right direction, and there have been improvements, but we still have a long ways to go in the country," Aaron said in 2014. "The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts."


After launching a number of variations of the original Galaxy Grand smartphone (like Grand Duos and Grand Quattro), Samsung has now unveiled its successor. Chrishtened Galaxy Grand 2, the device brings a number of upgrades to its predecessor including an HD display, quad-core processor, and improved battery, among others. Here is a quick look at the specifications of the phablet.
Galaxy Grand 2 has a 5.25 inch HD TFT multi-touch capacitive touchscreen display (1280x720 pixel resolution) and runs on the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean operating system.

The handset has a 1.2GHz quad-core processor and comes with 1.5 GB of RAM. The internal memory of the device is 8 GB, which can be further expanded up to 64GB with a microSD card.
On the camera front, the smartphone has an 8-megapixel autofocus rear camera with LED Flash, and a 1.9MP front-facing camera for video calling. As for connectivity, the device has Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi and 3G, and comes with a microSD card slot and a USB 2.0 port. It is powered by a 2,600 mAh battery that the company claims will provide up to 10 hours of video playback and 17 hours of caling. The specifications of the phablet are 146.8mm x 75.3mm x 8.9 mm, and its weight is 163gm. This one is also has dual-SIM functionality (GSM + GSM with dual standby option), and comes with GPS.

Philadelphia Firefighter Criticized for Rescue
PHILADELPHIA (MyFoxPhilly) – A Philadelphia firefighter who survived a recent warehouse fire in Kensington is being called a hero again. He risked his life to save another.
FireRescue Magazine/FirefighterNation:
Philadelphia Firefighter Rescues Woman from Rowhouse Fire
STATter911:
Earlier Report on Philadelphia Burn Injury Policy
But hours after the dramatic rescue, Fran Cheney says he was being criticized by a top fire department official for his rescue, FOX 29's Chris O'Connell reported Thursday.
Cheney says he was just doing his job Wednesday morning — like any other firefighter would do.
But for the second time in three months, he not only escaped death but he also saved a life.
Mary Jackson says if it wasn't for firefighter Fran Cheney she wouldn't be here today.
As her family escaped the burning house on Higbee Street, Cheney arrived with Engine 61.
"A radio report came over that there was people trapped. The brother is in the front saying that his sister is still in there. Lt. Lewindowski and Firefighter Gonzales from Engine 61 immediately said, 'We got this.'"
It allowed Cheney to search the smoke-filled home. That's when he heard the screaming from a second-floor bedroom.
"I couldn't see. I couldn't breathe, nothing," said the fire victim, Mary Jackson.
Cheney said she was "just smoky, heaving, trying to catch her breath. I mean it was just, you could hear it, she was in distress."
Describing what he did next, Cheney said, "I take a quick breath, rip my helmet off, give her the mask — it's on positive pressure, which means it just blows smoke away from her — and I just say, 'Let's go.'"
Jackson said, "I felt myself going down the steps, and then all of the sudden I felt something on my face."
Cheney carried her down the stairs and outside to safety, risking his own life.
"If I was worried about that, I wouldn't be here, and neither would any of these guys that I work with," Cheney said. "That's what we do. That's who we are."
Cheney knows that all too well. Back in April, he narrowly escaped that Kensington warehouse fire that killed two fellow firefighters. He still wears their names on his wrist.
He says during this near-death experience, his fallen brothers were with him.
"That was their way of telling me that everything is going to be OK," Cheney said. "They had a hand in that the other night."
And if saving a life wasn't good enough, Cheney donated his overtime, $500, to Jackson and her family to help them get back on their feet.
"I've realizes how special they are for us, for everyone," Jackson said. "He did, he went out of his way to save me."
Cheney was uninjured but suffered smoke inhalation and spent the night at Temple University Hospital.
He says he'll be back to work in the next couple days after getting cleared by a doctor. And you would think he'd receive praise for his life-saving, heroic efforts.
But wait until you hear in the second part of O'Connell's video report what his bosses had to say about his life-saving effort.
He says a top fire department administrator paid him a bedside visit at the hospital and, instead of getting praise, he says what he heard next shocked him.
"That's — I was told that wasn't very smart," Cheney said.
Asked how he felt about an administrator saying that to him, Cheney said, "I'm a pretty smart guy, so, if that's the comment then hopefully I could be in that administrator's spot someday, if that's what it takes."
The fire department will investigate to determine if proper procedures were followed when Cheney put his mask on a victim. He's says, regardless, he'd do it again in an instant.
Asked if that's proper protocol, Cheney said, "I don't know. I'm not a — you know, at that time I'm not worrying about directives. I'm not worrying about paperwork. I'm worrying about this woman and a family worrying about her, whether she's alive in that house right now."
As for his victim, she couldn't be more thankful.
"He's great. He deserves a medal," Jackson said.
We were not able to get a comment from fire department officials Thursday night. As for Cheney, he'll be back on the job at Ladder 10 on Friday, O'Connell reported.

THE English have their allotments; in Sydney we use the streets. In a variation on guerilla gardening, Sydneysiders are moving veggie plots from the backyard to the street verge, and converting formerly fallow public land into mini-market gardens.
"Environmentally, ethically and, from a community perspective, it's a great thing to do," says Eva Johnstone, a landscape architect, who with her husband, Bill, has been growing vegetables on their Marrickville street verge for the past two years.
"We always wanted to grow our own food, but our backyard is quite small, so the logical step was to grow it on the street, which was not being used for anything," Ms Johnstone said.
The Johnstones now have an established vegetable garden, with spinach, artichoke, rhubarb, peas, potatoes, beans, broccoli and beetroot. A nearby tree bears a passionfruit vine and a sign telling passersby to help themselves.
"We have more than we can consume," Mrs Johnstone says, "so we are more than happy to share."
The garden is a "big talking point", she says. Neighbours want to know how to convert their verges from worn-out grass to "something they can actually eat".
Street verges are council property but Mrs Johnstone says the council has been "happy to turn a blind eye.
Global warming, the drought and rising food prices have other Sydneysiders looking at local solutions to food production, says Michael Mobbs, a sustainability expert. A year ago, he and fellow residents of Myrtle Street, Chippendale, planted their nature strips and footpaths with a range of edible plants, including tomatoes, herbs, strawberries and fruit trees. Raspberries, rocket, native mint and passionfruit vines climb the telephone poles.
"There are several advantages to growing food in the street," Mr Mobbs says. "You make the streetscape more friendly by getting rid of the concrete and providing more shade."
On Saturday the street will be blocked off for the inaugural Food For The Future Fair, part of the Herald's Good Food Month, and will feature dishes made with food grown in the street.
"We want to show people that they can grow food where they live and return to simpler, lower-impact lifestyle," says Mr Mobbs, who received support from the City of Sydney, which provided some labour and plants. Other councils are following suit.
"North Sydney Council has established a permaculture garden with vegetable beds at the coal loader site, next to Balls Head, Waverton," says the Mayor of North Sydney, Genia McCaffery. "We would certainly be very supportive if communities wanted to grow veggies in their street, as long as it's a community initiative."

Ponies In Jumpers
19 February, 2014 Fat Nakago7388Leave a Comment on Ponies In Jumpershttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.themagicworld.org%2Fbloog%2Fponies-jumpers%2FPonies+In+Jumpers2014-02-20+03%3A10%3A53Fat+Nakagohttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.themagicworld.org%2Fbloog%2F%3Fp%3D7388
Man City 2 Chelsea 0
The little horses ((also commonly known as Ponies)) trotted (pun intended) up to The Etihad today to take on the big horses ((Manchester City FC, for those you keeping score at THE FIREHOUSE, my favourite emotional cul-de-sac here in Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin USA)). Now I might (have) watch(ed) this or I might not (have watched this), depending upon whether or not I hand this laptop over to my wife for a few hours ((our desktop, at the moment is in need to repair…but what do I about it?? I sit down and write about soccer, NASCAR, and My Little Pony instead)) in which case I will watch the first round of practice for the Daytona 500.
Well…as luck would have it, my wife decided to just take a nap. ((Evidently, the little horses in Blue decided this would be a good time for one, as well)). But I did watch some of the first round of practice. And THEN….
I fired up the pirate television set ((that's the old PHILCO b&w which has been retrofitted with a colour monitor and hooked up to the plumbing in lieu of rabbit ears for those of you interested in my evil machinations instead of Chad Knaus's evil machinations)) and watched My Little Ponies tussle and romp with the Big Boy Ponies over by Manchester one time there now.
And as I said, it was as if they decided it was nap time. They capered about like ponies in jumpers for a bit, but when Howard Webb blew the whistle, as if to say in the words of T.S. Eliot, "Gentlemen, please, it's time," the cuteness factor of the aforementioned ponies in jumpers had long lost its vigour. The scoreline was a fair, if confounding result. And Jose's metaphor had come full circle. At least for the moment.
I've been railing for the past few years now about John Terry's leadership and how essential it has been, and is, for Chelsea to succeed. With him sidelined for the past 2 games, the results have highlighted his absence. What I've been railing about of course is the Chelsea has done almost nothing to find a replacement for his leadership ((and yes, I know, as should everyone of you, that John Terry is absolutely unique and irreplaceable)) and his knowledge of the game. Cahill and Luiz as good as they are, don't have either at the moment. They don't have that special spark, yet. They don't have that pony magic that John Terry brings to the game.
Kurt Zouma, acquired in the January transfer window from AS Saint Etienne, is likely to figure as John Terry's replacement over the longterm. For a young kid, he's got tremendous upside in skill and knowledge, and from what I've heard, and a personality to match his physique. That's a term that's been bandied around lately in the wake Chelsea's draw to West Brom and their loss at Man City. Personality. The lack thereof. John Terry, like it ((or him)) or not, appears to be the only bronie at Chelsea FC to possess one at the moment. He's staying at Saint Etienne on loan for the rest of the season. But the sooner Zouma can get here, the better. His middle name is Happy, after all.
Danica Patrick, from Outer Space!!!
Well…so much for ponies in jumpers for the moment. Maybe. Perhaps. ((Are there any NASCAR drivers for which the term ponies in jumpers could be be descriptive?? Discuss amongst yourselves)).
Anyway, Speedweeks has crept up on me like some goddamn stealth fighter-bomber. I've been so wrapped up in my football that I've been close to neglecting NASCAR entirely ((alright, I exaggerate there, but…))
But your luck has run out, because I'm going to roll out a few takes on the upcoming NASCAR season. I'll start with the easiest and most obvious conceit in the book….my Predictions For The Upcoming Season That Are Like To Go Horribly Astray ((just like at last night's Sprint Ultimate won by Denny Hamlin, where Matt Kenseth contrived a little scenario where he, and several other drivers went Horribly Astray)).
I've got a few scenarios in mind for that.
First, I could just take the Lazy Way out and just do it myself.
The second thought I has was I could contrive a scenario where NASCAR's two jail-birds, the always aforementioned Jeremy Mayfield, and Wisconsin's Very Own, Travis Kvapil ((the handsomest man in NASCAR who's just plead guilty to charges of beating his wife)) could discuss the upcoming season with all the grace, dignity, style, and culture they can muster…..which I'm here to tell you right now wont be very much. Madness would flow from Mayfield's mouth like lava from a volcano. And wouldn't YOU want to hear what Kvapil REALLY thinks about his former teammate David Gillililililland?
The 3rd, and most intriguing scenario would be round up a couple of soccer louts who play in England and have them go at it. I had in mind Danish footballer Nicklas Bendtner who plies his trade for Arsenal ((ArseAnal—-ha ha, get it? ARSE-ANAL!!)) and the always loquacious and dignified Joseph ((Joey)) Barton
I'm going to do what NASCAR did for the Sprint Unlimited last night….give y'all the opportunity to vote on it.
Which scenario intrigues YOU the most?? Let's recap them so you can make a smart decision:
1. I Take The Easy Way Out!!
Basically, I just grab a beer and have AT it.
VOTE for 1. NOW!!
2. Jeremy Mayfield and Travis Kvapil pontificate from JAIL!
The handsomest man in NASCAR, Wisconsin's very own ((unfortunately)) Travis Kvapil joins Jeremy Mayfield's Madness from some prison located across the railroad tracks from a trailer court, complete with Deputy Sheriffs, with GUNS!!!
3. Nicklas Bendtner joins Joey Barton at a West London coffee shop for a lively discussion.
What the fock do these two bellends know about NASCAR??
Wouldn't you want to find out??
Now vote early and vote often and all that dross. The results will be revealed shortly.
Predictions For The Upcoming Season That Are Likely To Go Horribly Astray
Last season when I tossed off these predictions like candy from a clown car ((or the Mayor's Cadillac)) in some local, small-town, Chamber of Commerce sponsored, Flag Day or Festival Parade, it was so much simpler to give an assessment. To make the Chase, the top 10 in points automatically made the Chase. The other 2 spots were wildcards would go to the highest ranked river who finished 11-20 in the point who had a win.
This year NASCAR has tossed a spanner ((wrench)) into the works. The rules for the Chase have changed for 2014. So before we get to the predictions, I'll have to give a brief overview of what's new.
The Chase will now have 16 drivers. A win in the first 26 races will guarantee a driver a spot in the chase regardless of where he or she finishes in the points. If there are not 16 drivers with wins, then remaining Chase spots will go the drivers ranking highest in the points w/o wins.
The Chase will then work like a playoff system. After the first three races, the bottom 4 drivers are eliminated from the Chase. After the next races, 4 more divers are eliminated. And after the next three, the last four are eliminated. The points are reset after each elimination round.
If you've done your math ((maths)) here, you will note that 4 drivers and one race remains. The 4 remaining drivers will have their points reset so they're even in points. When the green flag drops at Homestead, they will race for the Sprint Cup Championship. When the checkered flag waves at Homestead, the driver who finishes highest in the race, will be crowned the Sprint Cup Champion.
That's it in a nutshell. And now you see horribly astray this can get, even with the best intentions.
And speaking of intentions, the VOTES are in!!
The winner is:
I take the EASY WAY out!!
#1 Jamie McMary — This year, he could make the Chase. After all, if this new system had been in place last year he would have made the Chase, despite my correct prediction that he wouldn't. If he has a win this year, I still think he wont go all the way. I see him maybe dropping off in the 2nd round at best.
#2 Bad Brad — Hell YES he go all the way. Then again I said that last year and he went on to have a season ((saison)) of crap ((drink some MILLER Lite)). He would have made the Chase last year if the new rules were in place, since he did have a win. Will he make the final 4? Yes he can….IF…
#3 Austin Dillon — The return of the #3 piloted by Richard Childress' grandson. More likely to win ROTY than go all the way. But a win at one of the restrictor plate tracks would get him in the Chase, but not much farther if he does. Ride 'em cowboy, and all that dross.
#4 Kevin Harvick — I could do an entire 2000+ word post about the insane asylum madness ((and don't place any wagers that I wont)) that is Stewart-Haas Racing this season, and if you steal ((politely ask for)) $5 ((£3.35)) from your mother-in-law and place a bet that Harvick will be one of 4 who will race for the title at Homestead, it will be good value for you, and after returning that fiver, you can still take your mother-in-law out for tea and cakes someplace nice, like Watts Tea Room, for their legendary Sunshine Cake. She will love you for it.
#5 Kasey Kahne — That Cougar Bait stuff is getting old ((pun intended)) but all the same, I'm quite certain that Kahne will make the Chase. But coming into the final stretch, I'm also quite certain that he will run out. No ((horse)) racetrack or betting parlour that I know of, will take a bet for a 5th place finish, and even if one did, you'd still be better off just spending that money on beer.
#7 Michael Annett — When I was in highschool, at Appleton Eash, there was an English teacher named Mr. Annett. He was short, wore glasses, had bushy-curly hair and big moustache ((which was about as hippyesque as a high school English teacher could be back in 1968)). There is no way, in any conceivable universe, INCLUDING all the parallel psychedelic ones, that Mr. Annett would ever have been found behind the wheel of any car involved in stock car auto racing. I've been following ((in the same vague way that I've been following the soon to be mentioned Parker Kligerman)) the career (such as it is)) of Michael Annett down in Nationwide, but whenever I seen his name on the leaderboard, I've always thought of and pictured in my mind the English teacher Mr.Annett, even though Michael Annett looks nothing like him. And in answer to your questions…NO, NO, and NO!!!
#9 Marcus Ambrose — He will make the Chase because he will either win at Watkins Glen or Sonoma. Unfortunately, he will naught go much further since NASCAR does not have a road course in the Chase. That's a big shame, really, since there should always be a road course in the Chase to test the mettle ((tactical nous)) of a true Champion. There should be 3 road courses in Sprint Cup just as there is in the Nationwide Series. I'd go with Watkins Glen in the spring; Road America in the summer; and Sears Point ((Infinion) in the Chase.
#10 Danica Patrick — WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! WIN ONE FOR THE KING!! That's all it will take for Danica to make the Chase. One win anywhere. Most likely at Daytona or Talladega. But who knows. This season, she's gonna run with blinkers off ((obscure horse-racing reference)). At least that's the word from the Asylum ((Stewart-Haas Racing)). So as they say…on any given Sunday….((or Saturday night…at Bristol for example)).
#11 Denny Hamlin — Everyone has accused Matt Kenseth of being a robot ((with all the personality thereof)). But Matt is a virtual King of Comedy compared to Denny Hamlin. If Denny Hamlin wins at Homestead this year like he did last year, he will be crowned Sprint Cup Champion, and deservedly. Of course,. he'll have to win somewhere in the first 26 races, but I think that's pretty much a given.
#13 Casey Mears — Really now?? Really?? But stranger things have happened. He might luck into a win somewhere. But with his luck, it'll be one the Chase races and while a win is a win, he will still be on the outside looking in.
#14 Smoke — In answer to all yer questions, "Hell yeh!! " But will his recently healed leg last the season? In my mind, that's my only doubt. But my mind is not the on the psychiatrist's bench here. It's the mind of Tony Stewart we're talking about. Mind over matter with his leg might be one thing. But mind over the other three lunatics ((in addition to himself)) on his team, well…that's a 2000+ word post for another day.
#15 Clint Bowyer — That cheating scandal he was involved in has cut Clint Bowyer down quite a few pegs on my cribbage board. I used to like him, but now he's starting out the season double-skunked on my ((moral)) scorecard. Despite protestations to the contrary, he was complicit in the cheating. I hope he doesn't win a damn race just to teach him a lesson.
#16 The Biff — Yes, he'll make the Chase. As for the rest of your impertinent questions about the bug-eyed goof, probably maybe and probably no. That's about as much info as I got from the Ouija Board I was playing around with the other day ((even though I was only using it to find out who would win the Kentucky Derby next year)). So that's about all you'll get from me here about The Biff. Goodbye.
#17 Danica Patrick's Boyfriend — After final practice, Ricky Stenhouse Jr admitted to eating most of the candy he bought for Danica for Valentine's Day. He promised to buy her some more, and some for himself. Words to that effect. Remember….I never let facts get in the way of the truth. That will be his 2014 season.
#18 Kyle Busch — NASCAR's Favourite Driver® will make the Chase and very well could win ((and wouldn't it be cool if HE won at Homestead with the verve and foaming wrath like his older brother did when HE won the Championship despite an entire wheel coming off as he entered pit road)), much to the delight of all his fans in Slovenia, Morocco, Suriname, Angola, Luxembourg, Honduras, Nepal, Scotland, Venezuela, Fiji, Martinique, Cambodia, Azerbaijan, and The Gambia; not to mention the adoration of all the housewives of the United States, Egypt, Colombia, Italy, and the Soviet Union.
#20 Matt Kenseth — Besides the adoration of the aforementioned housewives, Matt also has the adoration of the housewives of Portugal, Germany, New Zealand, Syria, Japan and Nicaragua. And while his main fanbase is from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, The Faroe Islands, South Eastern Dane County, and Finland….he also counts many fans in Croatia, Estonia, Andorra, Ecuador, Vietnam, Wales, St. Kitts & Nevis, Uganda, Georgia ((not the one where Atlanta is…the other one were Stalin was from)), Maldive Islands, Mount Horeb Wisconsin ((that fan would be me, for the record)), Thailand, Cuba, and the Central African Republic. So from all over the world there will be resounding cheers and guns fired into the air in the streets of Algiers, Cairo, Zacatecas and Podgorica and also deep in the Amazon jungle when he tops is two teammates, plus some other driver you can select at random using Tarot Cards or an 8-Ball, to win the Sprint Cup Championship at Homestead this November.
#22 Joey Logano — He will smile his way into the Chase. One hand on the wheel, the other stabbing you in the back with a valuable hunting knife. He just might even be that guy who joins the three Gibbsketeers® at Homestead for the race to death and glory. If he does, then get your sorry ass to Eli Cannon's Tap Room in his hometown of Middletown, Connecticut at once!! And even if he doesn't, get your sorry ass there anyway!
#23 Alex Bowman –Who the fuck is Alex Bowman?? I don't know. You tell me. Allegedly he will be running fulltime, allegedly. But who the fuck, anyway?? It's almost as if some organization rounded up all the lads in North Dakota, Saskatchewan, and Warroad, Minnesota who don't play hockey, and whose ever name got pulled out the hat got tapped to drive the #23 Dr. Pepper Toyota for BK Racing. Bloody hell, anyway.
#24 Noted Wine Connoisseur Jeff Gordon — As time has marched on, I've become less strident and harsh about Jeff Gordon. It's no longer That Homo Jeff Gordon and all that dross. He is no longer the butt ((pun not intended)) of all manner of mean-spirited jokes. No….he now the wine connoisseur Jeff Gordon, and I wouldn't mind one bit setting down with him and getting tight on a bottle or two. In fact there have been occasions where I've found myself actually rooting for him. If Matt Kenseth, or the rest my favourite drivers don't have a chance of winning the Championship this year, I'm all for Jeff Gordon winning it all. He won't be driving fulltime for much longer, so I wouldn't mind at all if he won it all this season, even if it's at the expense of Matt Kenseth or any of the Gibbsketeers®. Will he pull it off this season? After all, he barely made the Chase last season. The onus this season is going to be on crew chief Alan Gustafson. AG is in a contract year, so it's honest philosophy for him to pull every spanner ((wrench)) out of his ass to get the #24 set up to run like a hot rod ((raped ape)) every focking week. So the final answers here are YES, and IF.
#26 Cole Witt — It's probably not fair to say that Cole Witt is NASCAR equivalent of baseball legends ((pun not intended)) Cot Deal and Coot Veal, but then again, maybe it is. Or…he could be the next Bobby Hamilton.
#27 Paul Menard — If last season's points and Chase qualifying system were in place, I'd say YES to him making the Chase. But under the new regime, I've not so sure. Just as people die when they are killed, people win when they cross the finish line first. I'm certain he can accomplish the former, but the latter?? If he does win one in the first 26 and makes the Chase, I will buy myself a beer and you can watch me drink it.
#30 Parker Kligerman — I admire this kid's honesty. He knows damn well that this season is a go nowhere season as far as awards, accolades, and wins go. This season is all about running every possible lap and bringing the sled home in no more than one piece. What I mean here is that if he goes down 3-nil on 62 minutes ((lap 275 of the Auto Club 400 at Fontana CA next month, for example)) he won't be chasing the game.
#31 Ryan Newman — Newman is the perfect replacement for Jeff Burton ((who's retired to the world of NASCAR punditry)) in the #31 Caterpillar Chevrolet. He's the got the look, and demeanor of someone who just jumped off a Caterpillar powered piece of farm or construction equipment, and I will bet you a beer of your choice that he will make the Chase and make a deep run.
#34 Dave Ragan — Well…it's a pity for young David that the new rules weren't in effect last season. His win at 'Dega last April would have put him in the Chase. Little good it would have done, though, other than a 16th place finish. He was 25th in the points after Richmond, and 28th in the points after Homestead. Look for more of the same this year, except without the win.
#36 Reed Sorenson — The Billy Joe Armstrong shit-lookalike returns to the big time, such as it is, in the #36 Golden Corral Chevrolet. ((Now, that's BIGTIME)) Reed Sorenson is a good guy and all, but he is about as likely to make the Chase as Billy Joe Armstrong is. But then again, he could pull a David Ragan ((see above)), ya never know ((yes you do)).
#38 David Gillilillilillilillilliland — YABA DAH!! A SPIDER!! A GIANT SPIDER WITH DIAPERS ON!!!!
#41 Kurt Busch — Kurt moved from Furniture Row to fill the final spot in the insane asylum roster vacated by the aforementioned Ryan Newman. As I said, any one of the seething madmen that Stewart-Haas has collected could start spinning and spinning and never stop until there is blood all over the walls. Kurt could certainly find a win somewhere and make the Chase. But it could also be a case of him not making the Chase, and then winning a race or two. A little Gestalt therapy might be in order. ((A lot might be in order))
#42 Kyle Larson — The last time most of the world saw Kyle Larson in any memorable way, he and his car were lying upside down on the safety and partly in the stands at the Nationwide race at Talladega. And according to my solid, beer-fueled, line of reasoning, you should hold that memorable moment in your hearts, Kyle Larson fan((s)), as he won't be seen in any more of a memorable moment this season. Rumour has it that one of the two Target paint schemes the #42 Target Chevrolet will sport this season will be the WE ARE SO VERY VERY SORRY scheme.
#43 Aric Almirola — Everybody now….let's all sing, "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" en glorious Español. He had a decent season in 2013 and a top 20 finish ((18th)) last season. He will do the same this season.
#47 The Dinger — I like A.J. Allmendinger. He took his NASCAR suspension for substance abuse like a man. Owned up to it, did the rehab time, and learned a solid lesson. It's great to see him back on the track with a decent enough fulltime ride. I'm sure there's a win in him somewhere. But if there is, he probably won't make it out of the second round.
#48 Jimmie Johnson — This go-nowhere driver still insists on futilely trying to make a name for himself. How many years has it been now ((12))?? Too many, that's what.
#51 Justin Allgaier — I'm sure there is ((are)) a ((some)) NASCAR fan((s)) out there who would love to have the final four in this year's Chase come down to a duel between Justin Allgaier, Austin Dillon, Parker Kligerman, and Kyle Larson ((besides their mothers, of course)). But this is not the Nationwide Series…this is the focking Bundesliga.
#55 Brian Vickers — In the wake as last season's Chase scandal at MWR, Brian Vickers got the nod to pilot the Aaron's Dream Machine in 2014. Vickers has had a rough go health-wise the past few seasons with bloodclots that have kept him out a ride and in and out of the hospital. Hopefully he's be well this season. He has a lot potential and is a good driver and I'm confident he'll win a race or two ((at the right time)) and make the Chase and do fairly well.
#66 Joe Nemechek — Bloody Hell!! Is this for true?? Front Row Joe back in an actual, real Strint Cup ride that is not a start and park outfit? Bloody hell, anyway. It's the 3rd Michael Waltrip car, and Michael will be piloting it Daytona to start out. But Joe will get 27-29 races. And that beats driving around for a few laps until a TERRIBLE VIBRATION suddenly sounds the car's beer lap klaxon and then it's off to the garage to do some damage to a 30-pak of Lost Lake LIGHT.
#78 Martin Truex Jr. — The ultimate victim of MWR cheating scandal. He lost his chance to make the Chase on his own merits. He lost the sponsor who's been with him for several years. And he left MWR for Furniture Row racing. Kurt Busch made the Chase last season driving for Furniture Row. No reason Junior Jr ((obscure DEI reference)) can't either, except for a win, of course.
#83 Ryan Truex — Martin's little brother will be taking over the disgraced and jailed ((actually, he's out on probabtion)) Travis Kvapil's old ride. Since I'm too lazy to come up with anything more clever than that, See #51 Parker Kligerman, above, for further details.
#88 Junior — I will say this right now. Junior will be one of the final 4 left standing going into Homestead. At last, he will be famous and get a real live girlfriend.
#99 The Carl — Instead of running in this year's Chase, despite a win or two, The Carl step out of his ride and accept an £80,000 a week contract to play forward for Tottenham Hotspur as a replacement for Jermain Defoe ((now of The Royal Canadian Mounted Police FC Toronto)). The Carl will wear the 99 shirt, which is the largest shirt number in the English Premier League. He will celebrate each goal with his patented backflip. The Spurs fans will sing and chant his name. He will be the new King of White Hart Lane.
And there you have it. NASCAR predictions for 2014.
You will note that I haven't predicted my final four. I will do know. Bear in mind, just to prove that I am not a fat ugly crybaby, that I will show absolutely no favouritism here. Even though it might break my heart to do so.
When the checkered flag is thrown at Phoenix, and the final 4 is set. The final 4 drivers teeing it off the Ford EcoBoost 400 at Homestead on November 16, 2014 to win it all, will be:
Dale Earnhardt Jr.
There. I did it without breaking my heart. That's a relief for sure. And now I'm off for a beer.

It was time to depart Arenal. It was 4 1/2 hours to our next Hotel. We did not know the condition of the roads (turned out to be more Costa Rican highway – well paved 2 lane roads with narrow or non-existent shoulders). The route to Flamingo Beach is amusing, since there is essentially one road with few choices to turn off. And so, you see signs for "tourist traps" many miles before they emerge whetting your appetite and inspiring you to pull off the road and part with your dollars and collones. One such place was aptly named "Toad Hall". I pictured the "frog" in the Wind in the Willows driving his car down the open road. It was really a small hotel, cafe and gift shop on a steep hill overlooking Lake Arenal. We had the coffee (so so) and some Yucca chips (delicious). No toads in site.
A while further we saw an artisan shop with beautiful wood sculptures out front. We pulled over. There was someone watching the shop, but it was closed. We looked in and were impressed by the handiwork. The man called the artist from a cell phone and the artist arrived shortly on a motorbike. We had been looking for "native indian" art. What we found was a talented Costa Rican artist who worked with "roots" of trees harvested from Lake Arena when the water was low. He had access to trees and wood that can no longer be harvested; ancient hardwoods that cold survive years submerged in lake water. The man had been a chef, turned artisan. He built beautiful tables for the American expatriates who lived in villas in the region. The work we liked best he was preserving for an exhibition. We settled on a multi-figured mask and a salad bowl set.
We continued along the enormous lake. The lake gave way to small rolling hills. And finally these gave way to lush green meadowns filled with cows grazing on grass amid the Palm Trees and other jungle vegetation. Along the route, Rose had read about Las Pumas Preserve. One of the drawbacks of adventuring in the jungle is that it is difficult to spot the wild-life. If you think about it, there is a good reason for that. The jungle is full of predators, and if you can spot the wild-life, so can they, and that means "dinner for one and death for the other". Surival depends on camouflage. The same is true for the predators. If you are seen while stalking prey, that means no dinner for you. So that while we had spent several walks in the jungle, we had seen no predators.
Las Pumas Preserve (photos on top), had solved that problem of seeing animals in something close to their native habitat. Las Pumas owes its existence to the idiocy of many persons who thought they could raise an ocelot or a monkey as a pet, only to realize these were still wild beasts and quite dangerous. And so, all the animals in this preserve, a small zoo off the road to Liberia, are rescue animals. That jaguar had been raised as a pet; same with the puma, the toucans, the "monkeys", and the ocelots (jungle cats). It was neat to see the animals, but the cages with their close wires resembled old zoos and provided limited opportunity for photographing. They did have one large open field for a "retired" jaguar (resembled a large tiger) which, if expanding would make this place more interesting for a visit. Nevertheless, it did breakup the long drive to Flamingo Beach.
Flamingo Beach resort was in an isthmus with a long private beach, a large cove overlooking Catalina Islands. The sunset is the type that post cards are made of. We ate dinner on the rooftop terrace and listened to the waves crashing, planning our next day's adventure.

Team Playtech at Tipust Topini challenge - 337 Kilometres of Teambuilding
By Veiko Voolaid, Configuration Manager
Veiko Voolaid
It all started in February 2020 with an email from our athletic colleague Taavi that called up for a running challenge. The challenge was "Tipust Topini 2020", just a meager 337 km of relay running across Estonia in teams of 10 people, from the top of the tallest Estonian hill Suur-Munamägi near the southern border to the capital of Tallinn in the north.
More co-workers enlisted than we had available positions for, so we managed to put together a strong team from Playtech consisting of participants from many departments. As a result, we hoped it would be an event for the whole Playtech to follow, an extreme company-wide team building exercise, if you will.
As with many things in 2020, so was "Tipust Topini 2020" postponed and changed to a different date. Therefore, we needed to make some changes in the team and put the "backups" into the main runners' team. However, the backups were just as enthusiastic and willing to participate in this craziness.
Preparations and building the right mood
The training began. After all, each member was supposed to run about 33 km split between three stages, except for our team lead Taavi who needed to run as much as 43 km.
To prepare ourselves mentally, we watched Rocky movies for inspiration and studied the book "Born to Run" by C. McDougall to learn the secrets of running. But surprisingly, what suited us best was just the normal group run with a suitable pace for everyone.
The mutual support of the group members began long before the start of the race. In reality, it is not a race, it's not timed, there is no podium, just the pure pleasure of running without sleep for 36h (or maybe a few) - fun, right? There were 55 teams with 550 members and the registration limit was full in a few days.
And then it all began
Fast forward 6 months to August 8th. Alarms were set so we could arrive at the office at 6 AM to file into two cars (Taavi, Peeter, Timo, Marju & Triin in the first car and Valdo, Veiko, Ivo, Anneli & Otto in the second) and make it in time for the grand departure from the top of Suur-Munamägi.

We were all excited and a little worried since many of us hadn't experienced anything like it. On top of the distance and sleeplessness we were worried about the forecasted summer heat, a pleasurable news for anyone with the option to go to the beach, not so much for running. But it wasn't a race, right?
The start was in waves according to the average pace of the whole team. We were team number 17 and we started in the fourth wave.
There were no organized service stations throughout the course and the feeding and more importantly drinking was left up to each team to organize. And boy did we organize it well! A station every 2 km, more frequent if requested, to drink, eat, and provide a video comment in case of interest. When one car got lost (they really did lose their car member) then the other car stepped up and provided the roadside service without problems. Different car, same team.
Fun happenings from the race track
The adrenaline was high and it was fun, until it was your turn to run. The heat scared some of us and rightfully so. One of us hit against a "wall" a few kilometres from the stage finish, but climbed over the wall and finished exhausted. Another one had tunnel vision for a nearby lake at the end of her first stage, to cool off. She didn't care about anything at that point, but not for long, another member needed water too, so we had to drive along. On the first day the worst enemy was the sun.
This event is a good place to find running mates for life. For example, Triin found such a good running partner that she was willing to suffer a little too fast a pace in order to finish together. She did suffer because of it afterwards, but friends are for life, so why not try.

When you get tired, you start making mistakes. Mistakes on this relay run can give you the pleasure of running more. Peeter, the main driver of the first car did not only lose one of their car members, he lost himself off the right track as well. Another team pointed it out, Peeter took it as a man, shrugged off the extra 2 km, turned around and ran to the right spot. In his excuse, it was dark and close to bedtime on a regular Saturday.
The team that started their second shift around 1 AM had the pleasure of not having a scorching sun above their heads and took turns improving their personal bests. The lack of sun, abundance of falling stars and the cover of darkness gave us wings, we flew our stages.
Our night wings left less time for the other car members to sleep, but fret not, they were not able to anyway. Piled up on a big inside basketball court with all the other participants snoring and moving in and out it was clearly part of the challenge.
The other car experienced the same exact thing, besides Valdo, who chose to sleep in his van. He knew exactly what he was doing. Veiko tried to sleep without much success, finally deciding to go to the sauna instead. Since he couldn't get his towel from the van. (remember, Valdo was guarding it) he had to dry himself with a hairdryer. No regrets.
The sun was up again in the morning, otherwise the distance would have been probably too easy. Many stages were run side-by-side with other teams' members to motivate each other not to slow down to walk. It took a bucket of water to keep Otto fresh during his third stage of 16 km. Nonetheless, we finished in Tallinn a little before 6 PM. All were happy, exhausted, but happy about the whole event.

Key takeaways from such a crazy team building initiative
A race like this teaches you a different type of camaraderie where you have to rely on others when you know that they would rather sleep, and you have to help others even when moving your legs is worse than uncomfortable. The help did not only come from your own team members, all the other teams that you passed were supporting you. Either with motivating words, live accordion concerts or the most essential thing - water. Some locals also pitched in with motivating words, nourishments or a tiny dachshund for pace keeping by barking at you from behind.
Peeter's comment summarizes the before and after really well: "I guess we all had an impression before the event that most of the time we will be chilling in the car waiting for your runner to show up but boy oh boy was that a misconception. THERE IS NO DOWNTIME!!!". Long story short - "Tipust Topini" is an exhausting and taunting event - sign us up for the next one! A top-notch team building and cooperation challenge is guaranteed!

Memories from participating team members:
Veiko - The biggest obstacle was the sun and the heat. The distances were not that long and I didn't even mind the sleeplessness in the end. We finished well, with smiles on our faces and stiffness in the legs, I hope that's normal. Everyone was proud of the achievement and I think that all of us said that they were ready to do it again, just not the next week.
Peeter - I had two main fears about this event: a) running relatively long distances (personally for me) and b) driving back to Tartu after being without sleep for 36+ hours. In the end both running and driving went really well (with the exception where I got lost). It seems that adrenaline will keep you up and about for rather long periods of time. In addition I guess we all had an impression before the event that most of the time we will be chilling in the car waiting for your runner to show up but boy oh boy was that a misconception. THERE IS NO DOWNTIME!!! Also it was very educational. I learned four new words: jeps, järks, idekas and lege. To sum it all up: 10/10 would do it again.
Timo - Bonding and having laughs with other teams you run into during your leg - I had no idea it was going to be so much fun. Only to be topped by running through the pitch black of the night next with no other soul to be seen for kilometres, accompanied by clear night sky and falling stars. I have a particularly fond memory of the last run through Aegviidu though, with locals providing refreshments at the roadside, offering to unleash a tiny dachshund on me as the pacemaker should I wish it. All the hardships encountered during the run are quickly forgotten and well surpassed by the beauty of the Estonian countryside, the camaraderie of the teams and the positive emotions you take away from an adventure like this. I can't wait to do it again!
Watch the aftermovie of Tipust Topini 2020:
"A race like this teaches you a different type of camaraderie where you have to rely on others when you know that they would rather sleep, and you have to help others even when moving your legs is worse than uncomfortable."

Q: How pass a clicked button's value when submit button is clicked? I have an HTML form with multiple buttons and a submit button. I'm trying to pass the value of the button that was clicked prior to clicking submit button. The main functionality of the program is to upload a csv file in the respective table which has the same name as the button, i.e the name of the table is the same as button value. So the passed value will be used in the mysql query in the proceeding php page.
I tried it using php post method like this:
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$_POST['buttonname'];
}

index.php
<form id="upload_csv" method="GET" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<button type="button" id="button1" name = "button1"
value="role">Role</button>
<button type="button" id="button2" name = "button1"
value="report">Report</button>
<button type="button" id="button3" name = "button3">Brand</button>

  <!-- uploading the csv file here -->
 <input type="file" name="employee_file" style="margin-top:15px;" />

 <input type = "submit" value="submit" name="submit">
 </form>

<!-- ajax code to upload csv -->

  <script>
  $(document).ready(function(){
  $('#button1,#button2,#button3').click(function(){
  $('#upload_csv').on("submit", function(e){
   e.preventDefault();

            $.ajax({
                 url:"import.php",
                 method:"POST",
                 data:new FormData(this),
                 contentType:false,
                 cache:false,
                 processData:false,
                 success: function(data){

                          alert("Data updated successfully");

                 }
            })
       });
           });
   });

</script>

So first of all the the submit button should post only if one of the button is clicked before that. And if the button clicked and then submit button is clicked, the value of the clicked button is to be passed to the next page. For example, if the first button is clicked, then the value "role" should be passed.

A: You can use ajax and jquery for that i.e : onclick of button get value of it and then onclick of submit pass clicked button value to php page by using ajax .For example :

//on click of button get value
$("button").on("click", function() {

  //getting  button click value
  var value = $(this).val();
  console.log(value);
  $("input[name='submit']").click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    console.log(value);
    //calling ajax
    $.ajax({
      type: "POST",
      url: "yourphppage",
      data: {
        'value': value //<-passing value to php
      },
      success: function(response) {
        //display something
        alert(response);
      },
      error: function(jqXHR) {

        alert("There was a problem");
      }
    });

  });
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form method="post">
  <button type="button" id="button1" name="button1" value="role">Role</button>
  <button type="button" id="button2" name="button1" value="report">Report</button>
  <button type="button" id="button3" name="button3" value="brand">Brand</button>

  <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit">
</form>

And then get value of button in php page like below :
if(isset($_POST['value'])){
echo $_POST['value'];
}

Updated 1:

Try like below , i have use append to append key/values to formData . i.e :

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('button').click(function() {
    //getting  button click value
    var value = $(this).val();
     console.log(value);
    $('#upload_csv').on("submit", function(e) {
      e.preventDefault();

      //creating object for form
      var formData = new FormData();
      //appenfing data for button value
      formData.append('values', value);
      //append file

      formData.append('files', $('input[type=file]')[0].files[0]);

      $.ajax({
        url: "import.php",
        method: "POST",
        data: formData,
        contentType: false,
        cache: false,
        processData: false,
        success: function(data) {

          alert("Data updated successfully");

        }
      })
    });
  });
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="upload_csv" method="GET" enctype="multipart/form-data">

  <button type="button" id="button1" name="button1" value="role">Role</button>
  <button type="button" id="button2" name="button1" value="report">Report</button>
  <button type="button" id="button3" name="button3" value="brand">Brand</button>

  <!-- uploading the csv file here -->
  <input type="file" name="employee_file" style="margin-top:15px;" id="myFileInput" />

  <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit">
</form>


Superb site design and navigation…spare and clean, just like I like 'em.
The weblog has fits and starts from October 20 of 2000 to the present, but oh what fits and starts…a few postings in October, a few in December through March and May, and then he really takes off!
I'm still trying to figure out the grocery list.


I love mixing bright colors in the summer. What do you get when you mix neon pink and yellow? A sherbet ice cream or an awesome summer outfit! Let's start off with these heels! I bought these online from Charlotte Russe towards the end of the Fall and the minute I saw them it was love at first sight lol. I know I'm not the only one that falls head over heels when I see a beautiful pair of heels. I knew they would work so well for the summer. I love the two color combo and the floral print.
I paired them with this mellow yellow top. It's a pretty simple top with a cute crochet design on the top. I wore white jeans 'cause I felt they'd accentuate the colors on the heels and the top a bit more. It feels like forever that I haven't worn jeans on the blog! Remember my obsession with distressed jeans? lol To bring the sherbet look together, I finished the outfit with this hot pink clutch. I was in search for the perfect hot pink clutch and I'm so excited I finally got my hands on this baby. I can signal a plane with this bad boy!
Fashion tip of the day: don't be afraid to mix some fun colors this summer!
Hope you enjoyed this colorful post.


VIDEO: Paul George back on Mean Tweets — is he worth half a bag of saltine crackers?
While in Hollywood last month to appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Pacers star Paul George took a moment to record a line for one of the show's marquee segments — "Mean Tweets." During the segment, public figures, often times professional athletes, read a hateful post about themselves from Twitter.
In this NBA Finals Edition, Paul George is one of more than a dozen individuals — former players, current players, a current coach, and a host — to participate.
Others involved include: Zach LaVine, DeAndre Jordan, Mike Conley Jr., Karl-Anthony Towns, Devin Booker, Jay Williams, Caron Butler, Clippers coach Doc Rivers, Walt Frazier, ESPN personality Michelle Beadle, Joel Embiid, James Harden, Magic Johnson, Shaq and Karl Malone.
This is George's second time reading a mean tweet. His first appearance was back in 2014, and knocked his name.

The long-established firm Malcom Construction began as Malcom Brothers – a contracting enterprise founded in 1900 by brothers David, John and William Malcom. In the 1880s, the three – in partnership with their two other brothers – had opened a brickyard in Owen Sound, Ontario, before moving to Winnipeg in 1892 to work as masons and bricklayers.
Early notable projects included Augustine United Church (444 River Avenue, 1902), a Gothic revival edifice constructed of Tyndall stone with extensive decorative embellishment. The building was designed by architect J. H. G. Russell (1863-1946) with whom the brothers worked frequently. During this era the firm was also responsible for the Richardsonian Romanesque brick Bole Drug Company Building (70 Princess Street, 1903), which originally featured an innovative system of speaking tubes for interdepartmental communication; the Winnipeg Lodging and Coffee House, 175-81 Logan Avenue, 1905 (demolished); All People's Sutherland Mission (119 Sutherland Avenue, 1908), again by Russell; Augustine Presbyterian School (Pulford Street, 1909); the heavy, red brick with limestone Fort Rouge Methodist Church (525 Wardlaw Avenue, 1910); the addition to the R.J. Whitla and Company Building (70 Arthur Street, 1911; with Russell); the Edward Brown House (Wellington Crescent, 1912; demolished) and the Wilson House (Wellington Crescent, 1924). Many of these projects involved a substantial reliance on masonry, often of a highly intricate sort. This pattern appeared in the firm's addition to Wesley College (515 Portage Avenue, 1912), later named Sparling Hall, which was likewise designed by Russell and shows a skilful use of brick decoration. A similar use of brick is found in the firm's work on the two-storey Dawson Richardson Building (171 McDermot Avenue, 1921), designed by Charles S. Bridgman (1875-1965).
In 1908, William Malcom left Winnipeg to return to Owen Sound. Ten years later – when the Malcom Construction Company Limited was incorporated – brother David was the principal executive. After his 1935 passing, Malcom Construction was run by his son, Wilbert Guy (Bert) Malcom (1895-1980) until 1974. Maintaining such family connections, the company was owned and managed by Wilbert's son David into the 1990s. By that later point, Malcom was the oldest family-owned construction firm in Manitoba and was responsible for structures across Manitoba, Northwestern Ontario and Western Canada, with a speciality in commercial and office buildings. Beyond its Winnipeg branch, for many years the firm operated a busy office in Thompson, Manitoba.
David Malcom was highly involved with the Winnipeg Construction Association and was made an honorary life member. The organisation also honoured him with a chamber given the name Malcom Room. Malcom also received the Robert Stollery Award for outstanding achievement as an individual from the Canadian Construction Association.
Amongst the many projects the firm completed in the years following the era of its founding partners were 14 two-storey, dual-purpose row-house residences at Royal Canadian Air Force Station Winnipeg in 1955; the high modernist Purves Motors Volkswagen Headquarters (136 Lombard Avenue, 1956), by architects Libling Michener; the International Style Mutual Life of Canada offices (1111 Portage Avenue, 1959), designed by Green Blankstein Russell; and, the Seven Oaks Centre for Youth (1983).
